What happened in that instant tested everyone's nerves.
No one expected that an assassination attempt would suddenly occur on the altar against the young King Alexander, who was about to formally ascend the King. While people were still in a state of speechless shock, something even more unbelievable happened—
To assassinate Princess Tanasha.
Has the world gone mad? How dare someone attack the high and mighty Princess of the Zenit Empire? And what's more, it's a ruthless attack with six strikes.
The dazzling sword light descended from the sky, carrying unparalleled power. With just a fleeting flash of silver light, a figure One Sword appeared as if space itself had been torn apart, plunging headfirst into the air. Man and sword became one, enveloped in a ball of silver flame; sparks even flew as the Mars tip scraped against the air. The sheer force of the attack sent the three-star female warrior Susan, who was guarding the princess, flying. The frail princess was firmly locked in place by this terrifying aura, unable to move even a finger. Her long, flowing, seaweed-like hair danced wildly in the sword wind...
This assassin who fell from the sky must have at least Five-Star Class of strength.
The sudden appearance of blades from the left and right revealed the positions of the other two assassins. These were two strangely shaped yellow curved swords, their blades covered with peculiar inscriptions. Fleeting streaks of pale blue light flashed across the inscriptions, their blade energy slicing through the air, disrupting the flow of air, and mercilessly slashing towards the princess's delicate waist, so slender it could be grasped in one hand. The contrast between ferocity and gentleness was so stark at this moment, as if the princess would be cleaved in two by the wind of the blades before the blades even touched her blue robes.
The hilts of the yellow scimitars were held by two assassins who looked almost identical in appearance, height, hair, and clothing. They had the same expressions, the same coldness, the same killing intent, and the same blades... These two assassins, who used Wood-Element Dou Qi, were at least at the Four-Star Class level or higher.
For a weak woman who knew nothing about martial arts, to send three experts to assassinate her was already being overly cautious. However, in addition to the One Sword in the air, the double swords on both sides, and the pair of white steel claws on her back, the aura she carried was in no way inferior.
Those were a pair of hands forged entirely from white, refined black steel, covered with countless ferocious barbs that made the assassin's palms and part of his arms look like a monster, inspiring boundless fear at first glance. The claws tore through the air, even tearing through space, as they hurtled toward the princess's back and heart. Without a doubt, if hit, the princess's frail body would be instantly blasted into a pile of minced flesh and bone fragments!
In addition, there were attacks.
And then there were the three white-feathered arrows arranged in a triangular pattern, silently piercing the air with their sharp, metallic sheen; and the orange-clad figure that suddenly emerged from the ground, wielding a scimitar as sharp as a white ribbon...
Up, down, left, right, front, back.
Five sharp weapons.
Six ruthless assassins.
All of this, in an instant, formed a death cage.
Each assassin's strength was astonishing. The light of swords, the sharpness of blades, the arrows, and the claws all firmly locked onto the princess's aura, making her feel like an ant crushed under a massive boulder. She couldn't move, let alone breathe. Her long hair, which had been scattered in fright, was frozen in mid-air. The space within a meter of her body seemed to be solidified, and even the fine dust particles floating in the air were still.
The most critical issue was that at this moment, the princess didn't even have a single guard by her side, not even a weak one.
The female swordswoman Susan was forced back by the descending sword energy and was preoccupied with her own survival. The purple-clad girl, Ziyan, whose strength was unfathomable, was still a hundred meters away from the King's Altar, having just angrily pursued Bazel. Meanwhile, the blond, baby-faced, smiling Knight Commander Roman Pavlyuchenko led more than 200 knights to guard the magic carriage beneath the King's Altar...
Exclamations erupted uncontrollably from all around.
People panicked, but there was no time to do anything to remedy the situation. Some closed their eyes in fear, as if they could already see that delicate body being torn apart by six incomparably sharp auras, with blood splattering everywhere...
At this moment, only Sun Fei was the person closest to the Eldest Princess.
He was currently in [ Amazon Warrior Mode ]. A level 16 Amazon Warrior was only equivalent to a Three-Star Class Mid Stage warrior. Such a level was of no use. The fate of the female swordsman Susan was the best proof of this. Sun Fei's highest strength was in [ Barbarian Mode ]. A level 21 Barbarian, with all equipment and the [ Purple and Azure Twin Swords ] Summon, could rival the strength of Four-Star Mid Stage.
However, putting aside whether it was too late to switch modes immediately, the most important thing was that Sun Fei could clearly feel the terrifying strength of these five assassins, especially that One Sword that fell from the sky, which was simply an unsolvable attack. If he were in the same situation, Sun Fei had no doubt that even if he were to switch to Princess Chang in full Barbarian Mode, he might not be able to withstand that One Sword.
However, time is of the essence.
The body's instinctive reactions have exceeded the speed at which the central nervous system processes information.
Driven by the instinctive combat experience of an Amazon warrior, Sun Fei almost subconsciously reached out. A golden light flashed, and a golden longbow appeared in his hand. He lightly placed his fingers on the bowstring, and six arrows crackling with electricity appeared. Then he released his grip...
This series of movements was executed in one smooth motion, so fast it was almost like a phantom.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Six sharp, large arrows shot out through the air.
The arrow, jet black, pierced the sky with a piercing whistle and wisps of silver electricity.
With a single twang of the bowstring, six arrows were released.
Moreover, the six arrows were shot in completely different directions.
The first arrow was aimed at the eyes of the most skilled swordsman who had thrust his One Sword down from mid-air.
The second and third arrows were shot into the gaps to the left and right of the princess. If the two wooden swordsmen wielding yellow curved swords moved forward even a little, their waists would be hit by the long arrows wrapped in electricity.
The fourth arrow was fired at the foremost of the three large white-feathered arrows that were hurtling towards the princess's forehead, throat, and heart...
The fifth arrow grazed the princess's neck and headed toward the throat of the owner of the pair of white claws behind her.
The sixth arrow was aimed at the back of the head of the assassin who suddenly emerged from the ground, wielding a cleaver and radiating an orange glow.
Such archery skills are nothing short of divine.
Amazon Warrior Longbow Skill: [ Strafe ]
It can fire Multiple Shot at the same time and magically Strafe multiple different targets, resulting in considerable destructive power.
This is the first advanced archery skill that Sun Fei has improved in [ Amazon Warrior Mode ].
This was almost Sun Fei's peak performance in [ Amazon Warrior Mode ].
Sun Fei didn't expect to kill all the assassins with just six arrows. He only hoped to slow down his opponents' movements, distract them, and buy himself time to give the strong, purple-clad girl a hundred meters away time to come back and help.
After unleashing six arrows with incredible speed, Sun Fei immediately switched to [ Barbarian Mode ] and charged forward with unrestrained power. At this moment, there was no time for him to consider whether he could make it in time or whether he was a match for the six assassins—saving the princess was Sun Fei's only option. No matter what, he could not let the princess die on the King's altar in Chambord City.
However, Sun Fei's reaction was still too late.
The arrow aimed at the eyes of the assassin suspended in mid-air with One Sword in hand had absolutely no effect. The Five-Star Class expert's battle Dou Qi directly shattered the magic arrow into a pile of fragments, which drifted in the air without causing the assassin any trouble.
The twin arrows aimed at the two yellow-scimitar assassins were also hindered by their protective Dou Qi. Just as they were about to pierce the assassins' ribs, they finally collapsed to the ground, posing almost no threat to the two men.
The arrow aimed at the white-clad assassin behind the princess was deflected into the air by the White-Robed Thorn's right hand, while his left hand, still like Grim Reaper's Scythe, viciously clawed at the princess's back.
However, the arrow aimed at the three large white-feathered arrows actually had an effect.
The arrow struck the tip of the first white-feathered arrow with incredible skill, clashing Mars. The first white-feathered arrow veered off course, its fletching colliding with the head of the second white-feathered arrow, which then struck the third... The defensive line of the three white-feathered arrows instantly shifted, veering off to one side...
The sixth arrow, fired at the assassin wielding a horse-slaying saber, struck him accurately, but only caused a spurt of blood to erupt from his back. The tall assassin let out a low groan, enduring the excruciating pain as he gripped his saber tightly and mercilessly attacked the princess's legs...
The whole process happened in the blink of an eye, and many people were still gasping in surprise.
At this moment, Sun Fei was ten meters away from the Princess.
Apart from the mysterious assassin who suddenly shot an arrow from the crowd, the other five assassins were no more than four meters away from the princess. They could have easily blasted the princess into a pile of minced meat before Sun Fei could rush forward, and then turned back to kill Sun Fei.
Underestimating them has reached a critical point.
Death has already gently gripped the princess's slender, graceful neck, as graceful as a swan's. With just a squeeze, everything will be set in stone... This meticulously planned assassination will become a classic battle in assassination.
The consequence would be that the entire Chambord City would be buried with the princess after her death.
The female swordsman Susan charged forward desperately, while Knight Commander Roman Pavlyuchenko hurtled towards the King's altar. A hundred meters away, the purple-clad girl's figure blurred...
time.
At this point, time is of the essence.
If someone could suddenly appear and slow down the assassins' advance... but no one could possibly react in time and do it. Everyone had given up hope when, suddenly, Sun Fei shouted—
"Aren't you going to make a move?"
Ding ding ding ding ding!
As if in response to Sun Fei's angry shout, a series of cracking sounds like popping beans suddenly appeared in everyone's ears. Countless Mars erupted within half a meter of the princess's body. These Mars from the striking of metal weapons acted like an invisible shield, firmly knocking the weapons in the assassins' hands away.
A sword.
A very ordinary longsword.
The sword appeared in front of the princess incredulously.
Sword energy swept across the sky, Zongheng.
The flashes of sword light deftly blocked the assassins' deadly strikes.
The second update will be very late, brothers, read it tomorrow morning.
